My favourite types of I'm a creative person who collects Bohemian & English art glass - mostly Victorian, as well as early 20th C glass such as Art Nouveau & Tango. My favourite types of art glass are pieces with applied decoration, Peloton, trailed, threaded, spatter, iridescent, MOP satin, & rainbow glass. Favourite makers include Kralik, Welz, Harrach, Pallme Koenig, Rindskopf, Loetz, Thomas Webb, Stevens & Williams, & Richardsons. I enjoy glass that is unusual & fancy...like me. I also appreciate antique furniture, ceramics, & all manner of interesting old wares full of character & meaning. To live with style, elegance, & dignity is my aim, kind regards, Marin. (Read more)

  1. Thanks also, Russell117!
  2. Many thanks, kwqd!
  3. Wow, these are great - you got a good deal, Bill! The swirled latticino ones are very sought after in particular. (I'm not a marble expert by any means but I've picked up a few here & there over the ...
  4. Many thanks, Bernard & well spotted! Amazing how many variants they did to the bases, let alone the dome decors. As mentioned there will be another fairy lamp turning up soon. There are a few bases ...
  5. Thanks also, Kevin! Happy days indeed!
  6. Much appreciated, Peggy! I wish I could know exactly who it was that made this beautiful decor. The skill & artistry is of the highest order. But it seems as though many makers could be in the mix, a...
  7. Many thanks, Ales - & Krokodil Iris is a fantastic name for this decor!
  8. This is such a cool vase, Peggy! The turquoise blue & mica is special - what a super find!
  9. The dimensions would be good to know. It is difficult to figure much out without knowing the size. Photos from other angles could be useful in getting an ID as well. I can't think of any Kralik items...
  10. Thanks also, antiquerose!
  11. Many thanks, Peggy! Yes, a nice example that I'm very pleased with...
  12. Great find, especially with the frog intact & no annoying cleaning job! Also cool to make up a pair. I think a few Czech makers did those strutted bases, with some variations in the construction. Op ...
  13. Seconded! :-)
  14. Super little vase, Peggy! The apricot shade is very appealing & not that often seen, & the tight, upright crimp is also something different from the mote typical double crimps or pie crust style ones...
  15. Many thanks Kevin!
  16. LOL Peggy, I am just an incurable plant nerd! And I miss Michelle! My Rindskopf obsession is mostly thanks to the shining example of her collection...
  17. Lovely colour! And a dianthus or carnation flower...
  18. Many thanks, kwqd!
  19. Much appreciated, Peggy! Thought you would enjoy these...as I have long admired your example. I did have this shape in a strange dull blue/grey plus another one of the "cauldron" shape minus the coil,...
  20. Thanks also, Kevin!
  21. Many thanks, Bromar!
  22. Thanks also, Russel117, yes, I'm a big fan of Walsh Walsh glass, & always happy to add another example to the collection. Got another couple of other nice little ribbon rose bowls by Walsh as well, ve...
  23. Just posted the latest installment, Kevin...
  24. Many thanks, Kevin! And I got a few more items from the same stall...stay tuned!
  25. LOL, I fear that is likely a correct estimation, Peggy! I have more than a few of those "defeating" items myself...
  26. Many thanks, Kevin!
  27. Glad to hear it, Peggy! I have tracked back through my old posts to find the raspberry - prunted items, & here they are, a footed bowl, a rose bowl, & two open salts: https://www.collectorsweekly.co...
  28. This is super cool & really interesting, Peggy! I like it a whole lot, & totally understand why you got it - so appealing to the inquisitive & advanced collector. I think I have one or two items with...
  29. Thanks so much, Bernard! I realized after I took the photos, LOL..
  30. The salt cellars pictured in that link are a lot smaller across (check out the measurements - 7/8 of an inch x 1 1/2 inches). Despite being smaller items, they are deeper inside, allowing suitable cap...
  31. Many thanks, Ales!
  32. So quirky, so cool!
  33. Ha! Well said! :-) By the way, I've been looking at pics of various Czech comport bowls here & there, could there be an outside chance it is Welz?
  34. I wasn't aware it wasn't good, LOL!
  35. Peggy, we seem to be on the same page more often than not! :-) Must be an Aries thing...
  36. This is a crazy cool decor, like psychedelic abstract art years before it's time.
  37. What a super piece to fall for all over again! The decor reminds me of this vase I posted a while back (a maker was not resolved, despite all the debate it unleashed) https://www.collectorsweekly.com...
  38. This is such a neat little item, & I agree, the pink is special.
  39. Many thanks, Loetzforever, that's really interesting to know...I'll do some research in that area...
  40. Many thanks, Penny!
  41. Many thanks, kivatinitz!
  42. Many thanks, Bernard! Yes we are somewhat ahead of schedule for many of our flowers. Our town has a big garden festival due in two weeks time but most of the typical plants on show during that event a...
  43. Many thanks, Ales, much appreciated!
  44. Thanks also, Dragonflypearl! Tiger's eye is a nice analogy for this decor, too.
  45. John2Nhoj, thanks for the link...most of the results are more in the spatter glass zone which is what I'd more associate with the "tortoiseshell" description. However, I found one image from CW there ...
  46. This vase in Peggy's collection is the only one I've found so far that has a similar decor, but the interior is a different colour. https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/196992-kralik-art-deco-vas...
  47. Truly outstanding & totally stunning!
  48. Many thanks, Kevin! Yes, this is definitely on a similar level to that piece, & they are now next to each other in a cabinet I reserve for tall specimens (after a bit of a reshuffle).
  49. Many thanks, Kevin!
  50. Many thanks, Bernard! Yes, this one got lucky...maybe that demon helped to keep it safe... :-)
